Monroe County, GA : Man leads police on high-speed chase, crashes with car full of children on I-75 North in Monroe County on Saturday, 11th April, 2020

A 22-year-old man was arrested on a host of charges Saturday after police said he led state troopers on a high-speed chase through several Georgia counties in a car full of children. The chase began on I-75 North in Monroe County when a deputy pulled over Furquan Muhammad for not having a tag, authorities said.“Upon approach of the vehicle, our deputy smelled a strong odor of marijuana, Monroe County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Anna Lewis said. “The deputy asked him to step out of the vehicle and the driver took off.”
State troopers who were notified of the chase saw Muhammad speed past them at a high rate of speed, Georgia State Patrol spokeswoman Lt. Stephanie Stallings said. “The pursuing units were able to see there were other passengers in the fleeing vehicle that appeared to be children,” she said.
